Where are you guys jacking up the front of your trucks? The drivers side seems sketchy to me. The saddle of my jack won't fit on the axle in between the diff and the joint, so I feel like I am tearing it up by jacking it up there. I don't want to mess up the u joint or the alignment. I am also unsure where to put a hack stand, since the jack takes up the only usable space on the drivers side of the axle.

Driver I have always used the diff.
Passenger the axle right on the inside of the U-Joint. I go back and forth if I need it higher than just taking the wheels off.

I go on the bottom of the diff. Always have and no issues yet. Put a jack stand between knuckle and diff on open part of axle tube. Maybe been doing it wrong all these years, but no issues yet.
